use an agent? |

The idea of
saving the money normally paid as commission to a real
estate agent is tempting to many homeowners. This feeling
is understandable, but the lack of an experienced and
knowledgeable professional can be expensive, especially
in today's volatile real estate market.
The complexity of selling a home has increased drastically
over the past several years: environmental issues, disclosure,
tax and legal concerns — all are more complicated
today than ever before. Today, a real estate agent does
much more than plan open houses and show your home. We
will guide you through the intricacies of the sales process,
ensuring that all the necessary reports are filed, disclosures
made, and forms signed. We will also help you in other
ways : |
- Setting the price. Do you know
how much to ask for your home? If the price is too
high, you won't get any offers. If it's too low, you'll
lose money. We know the local market and will help
you set a profitable but realistic price.
- Networking with other agents.
Did you know that most home sales in California involve
cooperating brokers? Our solid relationships with
other brokers provide us with a vast source of potential
buyers. Our extensive networking exposes your home
to this essential group.
- Advertising your home. What's
the best way to draw buyers to your home...classified
ads, open houses, flyers to brokerage firms? We will
help you decide which vehicles will gain the best
exposure for your home.
- Qualifying potential buyers. Can
you tell whether someone is really interested in your
home or merely curious? We have the experience to
sort the qualified buyers from the "idle shoppers.''
- Negotiating the sale. Once you've
found a buyer, will you get the best possible terms?
Our negotiating skills will help surmount any obstacles
and ensure that your final sale agreement is both
comprehensive and profitable for you.
- Complying with the law. Do you
know what you must disclose to the buyer of your home?
Making sure that you comply with all the recent court
decisions regarding property sales is one of the most
crucial services we will provide.
